Do you have a screw loose?

Everyone has a few loose, but the 7.2 V

Makita Inline Driver will certainly solve that problem!

Working in a manufacturing environment has given me the opportunity to use many different types of drivers. The Makita 7.2 V inline driver takes the cake so far. Check out why…

Makita 7.2 V Inline Driver

Grips

Looks great with a slick green and black color scheme. This driver sticks to Makita’s awesome standard appearance

Feels great, nice rubber grip

Built in light on the side

Sturdy carrying case

You can keep the light on even when not pulling the trigger

Very long battery life, this battery lasted 2 to 3 days without a charge. Most require a charge every few hours

Sturdy design (You can drop it and be okay)

Light weight, almost identical in weight to Milwaukee’s 4V driver but packs more of a punch.

Straight or pistol grip shape.

Gripes

The light does not come on automatically

The case is a little over-sized

Inserting a bit is a two hand operation.

Bottom Line

This tool has excellent battery life, feels great in the hand and has a crazy amount of torque for such a small driver. Though the price is a little high approaching 200 bucks, you get what you pay for and this driver will last you a lifetime.
